AUMUS 320 - Music and the Canadian Identity


★ 3 (fi 6) (either term, 0-3s-0) Critical examination of four centuries of ways in which Canadians identify “themselves” and relate to “others”, as revealed through music and other artifacts of music making. Traditional musicological perspectives are integrated with those from ethnomusicology and post-colonial studies. Art music, country, pop, folk, and First Nations music in Canada are examined. Prerequisite: AUMUS 361 or consent of the instructor.
